Presenting world-class productions of the classics and bringing Shakespeare to the City's public schools through our education programs is now more challenging than ever.

When you become a Member or enter The Producers Circle, your generosity helps us inspire nearly 2,500 New York City public school students each with the works of Shakespeare and other playwrights.
